Message Went to the dyno today. Had lots of fun.

Car details:

Wiseco forged pistons 87.5mm
Stock heads and valvetrain
Stock exhaust manifolds, non-ported
JWT Sport 600's
555cc injectors
Pump fuel
Automatic transmission (which explains why there is chickenscratch at the beginning of the pulls)

The car was maxing out at 18-19psi and wouldn't squeeze any more.

There were 8 pulls made today, starting at run #8 (we have dyno'd this car before) and it went to 15. The pulls of greatest interest are shown below. The car was fitted with the JWT dual-pop to start with and on the 11th run it had been switched over to the DOOLZ. No program changes were made for the switch. A few minutes between the two consecutive pulls was observed so as to equalize the field in terms of heatsoak. Run #12 is not shown because the ignition pickup stopped sensing around 5500RPM. Three pulls were made with the DOOLZ in quick time and the DOOLZ setup consistently produced more power than the JWT counterpart. Here are the results:

Run #9 and #10 were with the Dual-POP and #11 and #13 were with the DOOLZ. A/F and boost were ~11.5:1 - ~17.5psi, JWT being slightly richer by about 0.2-0.5max A/F.

If you are interested in the DOOLZ, you can snatch a set of your own up here. The price has been adjusted for a limited time as well!

I honestly wasn't expecting to see any notable difference between the two and I will be revisiting this dyno-challenge again very soon with another vehicle for extra peace of mind. But to say the least, the DOOLZ definately is not making less power than the Dual-POP. There have been questions about having the shared area being of slightly less cross sectional area compared to the dual-pop's completely split design but it is appearing that my theory about the greatest point of restriction in the intake setup is the compressor inlet itself once the restriction from a single filter is overcome. The gains are likely more a product of the smoother path that the air takes when entering the stock pipes just after the intake setups.. The JWT dual-pop has a very sharp angle leading into the stock pipes whereas the DOOLZ has a much smoother arc in its design.
